Product Description
Valley Yarns Gala is a cozy and cuddly open-front coat that’s just the thing to snuggle into when the weather’s turned cool. A simple A-line silhouette gives an elegant line to this long coat while the bubbly bouclé structure of Chester yarn combines with garter stitch to bring bold texture. Chester blends wool and alpaca for a natural fiber bouclé yarn that’s soft, squishable, and works up quickly into cuddly finished projects at a super bulky weight. Gala is knit flat in pieces from the bottom up and seamed for structure with a stand-up collar providing a chic finishing touch that also adds extra warmth. With a comfy drop-shoulder construction and roomy fit, Gala is a go-to layer for adding understated style while warding off the cold. Choose from subtle neutrals and vibrant brights in Chester’s palette to create a statement coat for your winter wardrobe.
